Between the two extremes
So let’s return to the practice and the two extremes in responding to (alleg) racism: the Netherlands and the Unit application of h5 in marketing Kingdom. The pitfall of sweeping racism under the carpet (as is done in the Netherlands) was seen during the Black Pete discussion. Because there is no framework, the most extreme opinions were given free rein – and this while these opinions are only support by small minorities .

A through a racism lens was seen in the infamous MH-17 tweet by Quinsy Gario : ‘White lives matter more than brown ones’. By viewing everything as racism, all that remains is an unempathic distrust that makes communication between different population groups impossible.
In my opinion, learning from these extremes, we ne a framework that does not leave the interpretation of what racism is and the response to it to extremists. In this framework, ethnic background plays a role (unlike the Dutch extreme), but it is not the only element that is important (unlike the British extreme).

Therefore we can perfectly well be ‘Muslim gay’ or Brabantse Rotterdammer.
